Steps to replicate the issue (include links if applicable):
- use a desktop browser
- open a private window
- go to m.wikidata.org or test.m.wikidata.org
- follow the “log in“ link in the sidebar, or directly go to Special:UserLogin (test version)
- enter your username and password, submit the form
- if applicable: enter a 2FA code, submit the form
What happens?:
- I end up on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:CentralLogin/complete?token=redacted or https://test.wikidata.org/wiki/Special:CentralLogin/complete?token=redacted (i.e. non-mobile site)
- there is an error: “No active login attempt is in progress for your session.”
- if I manually edit the URL to go to m.wikidata.org / test.m.wikidata.org (keeping the CentralLogin token intact), then I am successfully logged in there
What should have happened instead?:
- I should have been sent to m.wikidata.org / test.m.wikidata.org directly
Software version (skip for WMF-hosted wikis like Wikipedia):
- MediaWiki
- CentralAuth:
Other information (browser name/version, screenshots, etc.):
- I’m using Firefox Developer Edition 104.0.2 on Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish.
- This may be related to other tasks like T225814 and T257852, but IIUC both of them are about “automatic” login (if you’re already logged in on the non-mobile site, and/or on another Wikimedia wiki?), not about “manual” login.
